I have seen pictures of people at war
I know they're fighting but I don't know what for
and when you tell me brother that's the way that it is
I don't believe that it is true
oh no
I have heard people who say it's too late
if there ain't nothing happening then how come they'll wait
and please don't tell me brother that's the way it must be
I won't believe that it is the truth
oh no
I Hear music playing all around me now and
I hear people saying it's not right but they're all wrong
I read the newspapers most every day
all full of words that have nothing to say
so please don't tell me brother that's the way that it is
I won't believe that it is the truth
oh no
